Views on the news...

Never have the lines between good journalism, comment and fake news become so blurred...

I just love the courage of teen vogue editor, Lauren Duca, in calling Trump out over his dishonest, racist, sexist and destructive utterings. Young people care passionately about this stuff.

"Trump won the Presidency by gas light. His rise to power has awakened a force of bigotry by condoning and encouraging hatred, but also by normalizing deception. Civil rights are now on trial, though before we can fight to reassert the march toward equality, we must regain control of the truth. If that seems melodramatic, I would encourage you to dump a bucket of ice over your head while listening to “Duel of the Fates." Donald Trump is our President now; it’s time to wake up."
